In 2006, Beach Volleyball teams from around the world, along
with the best UK sides, competed on the sands at Weymouth. In 2007, the Weymouth
Classic is once again host to the UK Open and this ones going to be even bigger!
On Friday afternoon, over 100 teams, of every standard, will set out in the men's
and women's competitions. Each team stands a chance of going all the way through
to Sunday afternoon's finals and winning the big prize. Running alongside the UK
Open are the 'b-series' for those eliminated early, the 4-a-side event, now in its
seventh year, and the junior tournament.
There's far more to the Classic than just the UK Open. From the press-launch and
opening games of Friday afternoon to the finals on Sunday, the event will attract
thousands of spectators. Audiences are catered for in the free grandstand seating
of center court and can watch games taking place on the nine outer courts.
Throughout the weekend, members of the public are entertained, not only by the fantastic
action on court, but also by the music, expert commentary and stalls on the prom.
Event organisers hope to recreate the awesome atmosphere which made Beach Volleyball
the most popular spectator sport at the Sydney and Athens Olympics.
